AIM Peak Endurance Product Information
Life begins and thrives at
the cellular level.
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP),
the “energy currency of the body,” is
the primary source of energy for every
function that occurs within each cell of
the body. If ATP is depleted, cells cease to
function properly, resulting in many of the
diseases we associate with stress or aging.
AIM Peak Endurance™ provides the only
oral source of ATP, PEAK ATP®, clinically
proven to elevate ATP levels within the body.
AIM Peak Endurance™ is a grape electrolyte drink
mix combining ATP (adenosine triphosphate),
electrolytes, and B vitamins. It contains only one
gram of sugar.
How does ATP work?
ATP increases energy levels without boosting your
heart rate, which is what can occur with caffeine, ginseng,
and ephedra products. The key to energy release
within cells lies in the phosphate bonds within ATP
molecules. When energy is needed, the bond between
the second and third phosphate is broken releasing energy.
This results in the formation of adenosine diphosphate
(ADP). When food comes into the cell, the ADP
takes the energy from the food and converts back to ATP.
This process is called the “Krebs cycle.”
ATP is depleted with age or stress
Researchers at the Mayo Clinic have found that DNA
damage over time may cause the loss of ATP. In fact,
studies have shown that between the ages of 20 and 70,
ATP levels are reduced by 50 percent.
Properly balanced electrolytes
and added B vitamins
Most sport drinks only contain
sodium, potassium,
and chloride, or three
of the five major
electrolytes. AIM Peak Endurance™ contains all five
major electrolytes adding calcium and magnesium to
the list. Calcium regulates nerve impulse transmission,
aids in smooth and skeletal muscle contraction, and
plays a central role in synthesis and breakdown of muscle
and liver glycogen. Magnesium is a key component
of more than 300 enzymes including ATPase and an
enzyme that is involved in the metabolism of muscle
glucose and glucogenesis.
Note the low sugar and absence of artificial colors,
flavors, and sweeteners in AIM Peak Endurance™.
Most sports drinks contain far more sugar and little or no
B vitamins in comparison to AIM Peak Endurance™. AIM
Peak Endurance™ contains the following B vitamins at 50
percent of their Recommended Daily Intake per serving:
B1: Thiamin has a central role in the metabolism of
glucose. It is part of an enzyme that is essential in the
Krebs cycle. It is essential for obtaining energy from
muscle glycogen.
B2: Riboflavin is important for the formation of several
enzymes that are involved in energy production from
carbohydrates, fats, and body cells. It is also involved in
protein metabolism and maintenance of healthy skin.
B3: Niacin is part of an enzyme that helps with glycolysis,
the means by which muscle glycogen produces energy
aerobically and anaerobically.
B5: Pantothenic acid is an essential component of coenzyme
A, which plays a central role in energy metabolism. It is also
involved in glucogenesis, the synthesis and breakdown of
fatty acids, protein modification, and acetylcholine (a muscle
contraction neurotransmitter).
B6: Critical in the metabolism of protein, carbohydrates,
and fat. It is used in the formation of neurotransmitters,
helps form amino acids into hemoglobin, and is involved
in the breakdown of muscle glycogen.
B12: Helps to form red blood cells and maintain a healthy
nervous system.
